Call Name: Ohajiki
Gender: Female
Variety: Shiro Utsuri
Birth Date: August 15, 2005
Registration: None
Lineage: 1st gen. unhexed
Origin: Adopted at Black Mist
Living Jewels is what the Japanese call these graceful fish. They seem to dance slowly as they glide though the water. Watching them instills a sense of peace and tranquility. I am very fascinated by the hobby of keeping koi, which has been a tradition in Japan for hundreds of years. In Japan koi are called Nishikigoi (colored carp). I'd love to have a koi pond of my own some day. But until then, I can enjoy koi in petz.
I breed the VPZ file.
These are my personal petz and are not for adoption.

Formal Name: BMC Ohajiki Call Name: Ohajiki Gender: Female Variety: Shiro Utsuri Birth Date: August 15, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 1st gen. unhexed Origin: Adopted at Black Mist |
| Ohajiki and Banshou are my foundation pair of koi. Just first gens, but I like them. Ohajiki is a very pretty Shiro Utsuri with lots of swirls of black and white. Ohajiki means marbles in Japanese; I named her that because she looks marbled. |
| Banshou |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Banshou Call Name: Banshou Gender: Male Variety: Tancho Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 1st gen. unhexed Origin: Adopted at Black Mist |
| Banshou is my foundation Tancho. I think Tanchos are going to be my main focus, all varieties of Tancho, along with Sanke and Utsuri. Banshou means sunset in Japanese. |

|
Formal Name: BMC Akumu Call Name: Akumu Gender: Male Variety: Shiro Utsuri Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 4th gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| I really like Akumu's combination of spots; he's got interesting white patters. Akumu means nightmare in Japanese. I thought it was a cool name since he's such a dark fish with little swirls of white markings. |

|
|
Formal Name: BMC Buchi Call Name: Buchi Gender: Male Variety: Aka Bekko Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Buchi is very flashy and bright red. So far my only Bekko. I like his little spots. Which is why I named him Buchi, it means speckles in Japanese. |
| Enrei |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Enrei Call Name: Enrei Gender: Female Variety: ? Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| I'm not sure what Enrei is, or even if her colors could be a real koi color. I haven't seen a picture of a koi like her. But I really know very little about koi varieties, I'm just learning. But whatever she is she's pretty. Enrei means dazzling or beauty in Japanese. |
| Hakei |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Hakei Call Name: Hakei Gender: Female Variety: Tancho Showa Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Hakei is a really pretty Tancho Showa. I think Tancho Showas are my favorite kind of Tancho. I like to breed different patterns. Hakei's red spot isn't a perfect circle, but I really like her anyway. Hakei means ripple in Japanese. |
| Kahen |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Kahen Call Name: Kahen Gender: Female Variety: Tancho Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 4th gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Kahen is one of my favorites. Although I'm not sure if she would actually be considered a Tancho, or perhaps a highly faulted one, because her red mark isn't round it's just a sliver. But I don't care I think it looks really neat. It reminded me of a delicate little flower petal, so her name means petal in Japanese. |
| Karyuu |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Karyuu Call Name: Karyuu Gender: Male Variety: Shiro Utsuri Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 3rd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Karyuu is a really pretty Shiro Utsuri. I love the flashy swirly markings of Utsuri. They are one of my favorite types of koi. Karyuu means swirling current in Japanese. |
| Kichou |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Kichou Call Name: Kichou Gender: Male Variety: Tancho Sanke Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Kichou is I think my favorite Tancho Sanke. I was really happy to breed my own Tancho Sanke. Mixing markings with this file is so fun, they breed very well. Since Kichou is one of my favorites (and the first one I bred), his name is the Japanese word for valuable or precious. |
| Kimke |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Kimke Call Name: Kimke Gender: Female Variety: Shiro Utsuri Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Kimke is very pretty with her simple white markings. I like koi with a lot of black and splashes of white, they're very flashy. Kimke is the only one of my koi so far who doesn't have a Japanese name, her name doesn't mean anything, I made it up. |
| Konran |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Konran Call Name: Konran Gender: Male Variety: Sanke? Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| I love Konran's markings so much! I think he's a Sanke, but I'm not sure. Maybe he's a Showa? I'm not very good at understanding koi varieties yet. Konran means chaos or mayhem in Japanese. I thought it was fitting because his markings look so wild. |
| Koushi |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Koushi Call Name: Koushi Gender: Male Variety: Sanke? Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Koushi is a really neat Sanke. At least I think he's a Sanke. He could almost be a Tancho except for the red marks near his tail. Anyway I like how he has red only on his front and back. Koushi means crown prince in Japanese. Impressive name for a fish eh? |
| Kyouki |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Kyouki Call Name: Kyouki Gender: Female Variety: Black Tancho Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Kyouki is my black Tancho! I didn't expect to get to get a black Tancho from her breeding, but I did want one very badly cuz they are so neat looking. Kyouki means pleasant surprise in Japanese, and that's exactly what she was. |
| Sake |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Sake Call Name: Sake Gender: Male Variety: Sanke? Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 2nd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| Sake is just a really cool fish. Sake is of course Japanese rice wine. Hehe, Sake is my drunken fish! |
| Teishi |
|
|
Formal Name: BMC Teishi Call Name: Teishi Gender: Male Variety: Tancho Sanke? Birth Date: August 16, 2005 Registration: None Lineage: 3rd gen. unhexed Origin: Bred at Black Mist |
| I like the way black is overlaid on Teishi's red spot. I don't know if that's a fault or something, but I think it looks cool. I think Teishi means conflict in Japanese, I can't remember exactly. |
